George,
Do you have any more information? I have been researching this avenue
and am not having any luck. 2-3mm neoprene laminated to Spandura or
woven kevlar should work but I do know of any vendors.
ps: The only sea mammals around here are bird dogs and their owners
have guns {;)
Thanks in advance,
